Packing equilateral triangles

Question

Keeping up with the triangle motif we've seen lately...

Suppose you have a regular hexagon. How many equilateral triangles can you pack in it if each vertex must touch an edge of the hexagon? What if the restriction was reduced to only needing to touch two edges of the hexagon?
